After overnight gales on the night of 31st January2015, I decided it was a potentially good time to get some footage of how much of a sea it had lifted, especially since it was not a major high spring tide, but only a 4.7m tide peaking at 13:18hrs GMT - around the time this footage was taken.

This was my first kayak sea fishing session at St Abbs UK, on the Scottish borders in April 2015. There were plenty of Coalfish and Pollack around, although most were fairly small, they were fun to catch. Most falling to Cod Daylights with a couple caught on a SavageGear Sandeel. Unfortunately the camera lense was a bit dirty when I caught my biggest fish of the day hence the poor quality footage of the Pollack.

A fantastic day out with MarineQuest out of Eyemouth and aboard Silver Sky with skipper Jim Easingwood. We headed north to two lovely dive sites and their seal populations for the sort of experience that makes you glad to be a diver. It's a privilege to see these wonderful creatures in their natural habitat, where it's their choice to interact or not.
Shot on my Muvi K2 (But with disappointing results from the inconsistent white balance, limited dynamic range/harsh contrast and slow exposure adjustment, so it's gone!), and with a pair of Archon D11V lights that have been very good now that I've got some decent batteries in them (Panasonics). And the seals loved the lights! I thought they might have been off-putting at first, but not a bit of it. If anything, they added to my allure as far as the seals were concerned as you'll see.
Anyway, I was happy with the footage - technical quality aside - and even happier with my day's diving. I hope you enjoy it.

St Abbs

The village was originally known as Coldingham Shore, the name St Abbs being adopted in the 1890s. The new name was derived from St Abb's Head, a rocky promontory located to the north of the village, itself named after the 7th century saint Æbbe of Coldingham.

History

St Abbs was originally called Coldingham Shore. Prior to any buildings the fishermen who worked their boats from the beach resided at Fisher's Brae in Coldingham. These fishermen had to carry their fishing gear the one and a half miles down a path. The path is now known as the Creel Path; creel is the local name for a lobster pot.

The first building in St Abbs was constructed about the middle of the 18th century followed later by a row of five cottages. This first row of houses were constructed in a traditional Scottish style with a central fire and a wide chimney. The walls were constructed of "clat and clay" a framework of wood interlaced with straw and daubed over with moist clay.

St Abb's Head

Lighthouse

A signal station was established on the cliffs before 1820 and the facilities were shared by Trinity House and Her Majesty's Coastguard. The Northern Lighthouse Board recommended the building of a lighthouse at St Abb's Head after the sinking of the "Martello" on Carr Rock in 1857. The lighthouse was designed and built by the brothers David Stevenson and Thomas Stevenson and assisted navigation before and after sight of the Bell Rock and Isle of May lights disappeared from view. The light began service on 24 February 1862 and initially used oil to generate its light, it was converted to incandescent power in 1906 and to electricity in 1966 and finally automated in 1993. Before automation the lighthouse was staffed by three full-time keepers whose duties included keeping detailed weather records. The lighthouse has two km of single track tarmaced road leading to it from the main road near St Abbs village, however it is suggested by the National Trust of Scotland that it is only used by disabled visitors and there is limited parking. Visitors can walk to the Head where the lighthouse's buildings, though still in good repair, are not open to the public. A foghorn was established at the Head in 1876, being the first audible fog signal in Scotland. The original foghorn was driven by hot air engines before being replaced by oil driven ones in 1911 and then by diesel engines in December 1955. The fog signal was discontinued in 1987 although the horn is still in place and can be reached at the edge of the cliffs by a railed path from the lighthouse.

Nature reserve

A nature reserve (natural reserve, bioreserve, (natural/nature) preserve or (national/nature) conserve) is a protected area of importance for wildlife, flora, fauna or features of geological or other special interest, which is reserved and managed for conservation and to provide special opportunities for study or research. Nature reserves may be designated by government institutions in some countries, or by private landowners, such as charities and research institutions, regardless of nationality. Nature reserves fall into different IUCN categories depending on the level of protection afforded by local laws.

History

Cultural practices that roughly equate to the establishment and maintenance of reserved areas for animals date back to antiquity, with King Devanampiya Tissa of Sri Lanka establishing one of the world's earliest wildlife sanctuaries in the 3rd century BC. Early reservations often had a religious underpinning, such as the 'evil forest' areas of West Africa which were forbidden to humans, who were threatened with spiritual attack if they went there. Sacred areas taboo from human entry to fishing and hunting are known by many ancient cultures worldwide.

After overnight gales on the night of 31st January2015, I decided it was a potentially good time to get some footage of how much of a sea it had lifted, especially since it was not a major high spring tide, but only a 4.7m tide peaking at 13:18hrs GMT - around the time this footage was taken.

St Abbs Head Nature Reserve

We were given special permission to use our drone at this nature reserve by the NTS.
Formed by a series of volcanic eruptions, the craggy landscape of St Abb’s Head on the Berwickshire coast is a National Nature Reserve famous for its clamouring seabirds, rugged coastline, rich grasslands and crystal-clear waters.
A veritable ‘seabird city’, St Abb’s Head is a year-round haven for birdwatchers, walkers and wildlife lovers.
The dramatic cliffs provide spectacular vantage points from which to watch thousands of nesting seabirds, including guillemots, kittiwakes and razorbills.

St Abbs rock fishing for tricksy fish.

Went on a trip to the East Coast for what was expected to be a long slow day but with the chance of some very good fish. Well I only got four encounters that day and they were all from decent fish...First fish cut my line on a snag, second fish got unhooked with the help of kelp (?).The only fish of the day landed, was a nice pollock that threw the hook whilst at my feet (I was precariously perched on a rock ledge!) and I then lost possibly the biggest fish of the day from a bad hook up (hook was slightly bent and blunt from a snag-up, with the fish taking soon after unsnagging the lure). Not exactly the most productive of days but I still felt it was worth the trip..
Interesting to note the lack of coalies and Im pretty certain that all the fish were pollock. I think we're gonna have an early season this year...

What would seven days on Scotland’s east coast look like? Filled with cities, coastline, castles and much more besides, this part of the country is perfect for an unforgettable road trip.
Starting in Edinburgh, Scotland’s capital, you can see incredible historic attractions before heading north to Fife to see the fishing villages of the East Neuk and the charming university town of St Andrews.
Soak up the pioneering spirit of Dundee, a UNESCOCity of Design. On its waterfront, admire the old and the new – the RRS Discovery, a 116 year-old ship used for early polar expeditions stands side by side with the newly constructed V&A Museum of Design Dundee.
On the stretch from Dundee to Aberdeen, you won’t want to miss the chance to take in one of Scotland’s most breathtaking ruins, Dunnottar...

Runde

www.visitalesund.com. Facing the ocean, north in Fjord Norway, lies the island of Runde. The small island has no more than 150 inhabitants, but from February to August every year the nesting season takes place and more than 500.000 birds gather on the island. It is the southernmost bird cliff in Norway. It is connected to the mainland with a bridge and is the home of some 500.000 to 700.000 seabirds. More than 220 species have been identified, but Runde is most famous for its puffins. Other species includes (bort) black-legged kittiwake, common guillemot, northern gannet, great skua and not least the white-tailed eagle.

Places to see in ( Eyemouth - UK )
Eyemouth is a small town and civil parish in Berwickshire, in the Scottish Borders area of Scotland. It is 2 miles east of the main north-south A1 road and just 8 miles north of Berwick-upon-Tweed. Eyemouth is very nearly due east of Glasgow. In fact Eyemouth's latitude is 55.8691°N, whilst Glasgow's is 55.8642°N, so Eyemouth is about 600 yards further north.
The town's name comes from its location at the mouth of the Eye Water. The Berwickshire coastline consists of high cliffs over deep clear water with sandy coves and picturesque harbours. A fishing port, Eyemouth holds a yearly Herring Queen Festival. Notable buildings in the town include Gunsgreen House and a cemetery watch-house built to stand guard against the Resurrectionists (body snatchers). ...

January 2012 out of St AbbsHarbour.
See the trip details here http://www.everytrail.com/view_trip.php?trip_id=1423108
Weather had been great with a high pressure all over the U.K. but I didnt manage to get on the water untill Sunday the 15th at around 2.30 .
Glad that I decided to go down the coast as I had planned to paddle up at the Forth Bridge area guess that will be left for another day.
I'll be back down here as soon as I can as the area is outstanding with tons of interesting features to explore.
If you like this have a look at this as well Great weather for Kayaking

On the stretch from Dundee to Aberdeen, you won’t want to miss the chance to take in one of Scotland’s most breathtaking ruins, Dunnottar Castle. This cliff-top ruin looks like a scene from the pages of a fairy tale. Don’t forget to take you camera!
After an overnight stay in Aberdeen, your journey will take you inland, through the land of Speyside, one of Scotland’s whisky producing regions. Plan a stop at a distillery to take a tour and see how uisge beatha, ‘the water of life’, is made.
Driving through the majestic countryside of Royal Deeside and the east side of the Cairngorms National Park is bound to be a highlight of the journey. Take time for a scenic walk in HighlandPerthshire to see enchanting woodlands with tumbling waters and towering trees before returning back to Edinburgh.

Places to see in ( Coldingham - UK )
Coldingham is a village and parish in Berwickshire, Scottish Borders, on Scotland's southeast coastline, north of Eyemouth. The parish lies in the east of the Lammermuir district and is the second largest civil parish by area in the county of Berwickshire, after Lauder. It is bounded on the north-west by the North Sea, on the east by the parish of Eyemouth, on the south-east by Ayton on the south by Chirnside and Bunkle, on the west by Abbey St Bathans and on the north by Cockburnspath. Besides the village of Coldingham, the parish contains the villages of:
St Abbs (formerly Coldingham Shore)
Reston
AuchencrowGrantshouse
The civil parish is divided between the Community Council areas of Coldingham, St Abbs, Reston and Auchencrow, and Grantshouse. It was included in the former Berwickshire District of Borders Region, by the Local Government (Scotland) Act1973, from 1975 to 1996.
Before the Reformation a vaguely defined jurisdiction known as Coldinghamshire was linked to Coldingham Priory and extended along the east coast of Berwickshire. By 15th century there is some indication that the civil administration was gradually attaining paramount sway with the consent of the Church itself. In 1406, the lordship of the Priory was held by Archibald, Earl of Douglas and in 1414, the Prior and Chapter of Durham (the ecclesiastical superiors of the priory) signed a deed constituting the Earl of Douglas "sovereign bailie" and governor of the house and barony of Coldingham. The barony of Coldingham, which included Eyemouth and other areas adjacent to the parish of Coldingham continued as a jurisdiction into the 17th and 18th centuries.
There was a monastery of high order on this site as early as AD 660, when it is recorded that Etheldreda, the queen of Egfrid, became a nun at the Monastery of Coldingham, then under the management of Æbbe the Elder, aunt of her husband. Bede describes it as "the Monastery of Virgins" and states that in 679 the monastery burnt down. It was rebuilt, but was again destroyed by fire at the hands of a raiding party of Danes in 870. This time the ruins were not rebuilt, it would appear, until 1098, when the Priory of Coldingham was founded by King Edgar in honour of St. Cuthbert of Lindisfarne. It became the caput for the Barony of Coldingham, with the prior as the feudal lord.
( Coldingham - UK ) is well know as a tourist destination because of the variety of places you can enjoy while you are visiting Coldingham . Through a series of videos we will try to show you recommended places to visit in Coldingham - UK

We have had two schools here, we have had two pilgrimage groups here today, we have had a group of prison officers here today. I mean it all happens here. It's a lovely place for people to come.

www.visitalesund.com. Facing the ocean, north in Fjord Norway, lies the island of Runde. The small island has no more than 150 inhabitants, but from February to August every year the nesting season takes place and more than 500.000 birds gather on the island. It is the southernmost bird cliff in Norway. It is connected to the mainland with a bridge and is the home of some 500.000 to 700.000 seabirds. More than 220 species have been identified, but Runde is most famous for its puffins. Other species includes (bort) black-legged kittiwake, common guillemot, northern gannet, great skua and not least the white-tailed eagle. All in all it has more species represented than any other place in Scandinavia and ranges among the top bird watching spots in the world. The many shipwrecks in the ocean make Runde a feast for everyone interested in combining hiking with storytelling or diving. The hiking on the island is suitable for anyone. The easy walks and not least birdwatching will be a spectacular event for children and grown-ups alike. The paths across the top of the island are well marked, leading to the cliffs and the spectacular views of the birds and the ocean. Hiking and watching birds can be combined with a visit to the famous Runde lighthouse. There are several alternative routes, but expect the trip to last 2-3 hours from start to finish if you choose the shortest. The well marked paths leave no need for maps. Still, description of routes and birds are found in maps and books which can be bought in the accommodation facilities on the island, at the TouristInformation Office or by simply searching the web. Guides are available on request, and in summer season, boat trips are arranged frequently around the island to marvel at the cliffs, the birds and other marine life from the ocean.

Eyemouth is a small town and civil parish in Berwickshire, in the Scottish Borders area of Scotland. It is 2 miles east of the main north-south A1 road and just 8 miles north of Berwick-upon-Tweed. Eyemouth is very nearly due east of Glasgow. In fact Eyemouth's latitude is 55.8691°N, whilst Glasgow's is 55.8642°N, so Eyemouth is about 600 yards further north.
The town's name comes from its location at the mouth of the Eye Water. The Berwickshire coastline consists of high cliffs over deep clear water with sandy coves and picturesque harbours. A fishing port, Eyemouth holds a yearly Herring Queen Festival. Notable buildings in the town include Gunsgreen House and a cemetery watch-house built to stand guard against the Resurrectionists (body snatchers). Many of the features of a traditional fishing village are preserved in the narrow streets and 'vennels', giving shelter from the sea and well-suited to the smuggling tradition of old.
Eyemouth is not far from the small villages of Ayton, Reston, St. Abbs, Coldingham and Burnmouth. The coast offers opportunities for birdwatching, walking, fishing and diving. Accommodation includes several hotels, B&Bs and a holiday park. The geology of the area shows evidence of folding that led James Hutton to announce that the surface of the earth had changed dramatically over the ages.
Other places of interest nearby include the fortifications of Berwick-upon-Tweed also designed by Sir Richard Lee, and its military museum, Paxton House, the Union Bridge and the Chain BridgeHoneyFarm, and scores of quiet country roads skirting the Cheviot Hills, frequently snow-capped in winter. Many visitors pause on their journey on the A1 to photograph their arrival in Scotland or their departure to England at the border crossing. Though the border has significance to many visitors, most local people think of themselves as 'Borderers' rather than as Scots or English. Nearby the border is a nature trail through the mysteriously named 'Conundrum' Farm. TypicalBorder towns and villages, such as Kelso, Grantshouse, Abbey St Bathans, Cove, Cockburnspath (pronounced 'coburnspath' or 'copath' by locals), Cornhill, Wooler, Morpeth, Alnmouth and Alnwick are all within easy reach for day trips from Eyemouth. NearChirnside stood Ninewells House, since demolished, where David Hume, whom many regard as foremost among the philosophers of the Scottish Enlightenment, if not the greatest of all time, spent much of his life.

Wild Camp Berwickshire 2015

This is my 2 night coastal wild camp in Berwickshire within the Scottish Borders with St Abbs and Coldingham being the closest access points. I part walk the Berwickshire Coastal trail which is part of a Long DistanceTrail associated with the NorthumberlandCoastal Trail. I enjoy a beautiful night round the camp fire but it interrupted by one of the worst lightning thunderstorms in UK history. My dilemma is explained! On reflection my decision was perhaps panic driven but the circumstances were extreme and as I comment I was actually BRICKING IT!

Dive St Abbs - West Hurker to Pinnacle

Better video (hopefully) of this sight as torch fully charged this time. More of the cave and a large lobster along with the rest (i won't spoil it for you). The octopus on the other video was on this dive also. Quite a large swell running but i would say more waves but not to bad as we were sheltered inact it was flat calm where we started as we were round the corner but where we surfaced at the Pinnacle it was choppy there.

After overnight gales on the night of 31st January2015, I decided it was a potentially good time to get some footage of how much of a sea it had lifted, especially since it was not a major high spring tide, but only a 4.7m tide peaking at 13:18hrs GMT - around the time this footage was taken.

Kayak Sea Fishing at St Abbs UK - 2015

Check out my blog at: http://stufishing.com/
This was my first kayak sea fishing session at St Abbs UK, on the Scottish borders in April 2015. There were plenty of Coalfish and Pollack around, although most were fairly small, they were fun to catch. Most falling to Cod Daylights with a couple caught on a SavageGear Sandeel. Unfortunately the camera lense was a bit dirty when I caught my biggest fish of the day hence the poor quality footage of the Pollack.

Diving with the seals off St Abbs, September 2016

A fantastic day out with MarineQuest out of Eyemouth and aboard Silver Sky with skipper Jim Easingwood. We headed north to two lovely dive sites and their seal populations for the sort of experience that makes you glad to be a diver. It's a privilege to see these wonderful creatures in their natural habitat, where it's their choice to interact or not.
Shot on my Muvi K2 (But with disappointing results from the inconsistent white balance, limited dynamic range/harsh contrast and slow exposure adjustment, so it's gone!), and with a pair of Archon D11V lights that have been very good now that I've got some decent batteries in them (Panasonics). And the seals loved the lights! I thought they might have been off-putting at first, but not a bit of it. If anything, they added to my allure as far as the seals were concerned as you'll see.
Anyway, I was happy with the footage - technical quality aside - and even happier with my day's diving. I hope you enjoy it.

St Abbs Head Nature Reserve

We were given special permission to use our drone at this nature reserve by the NTS.
Formed by a series of volcanic eruptions, the craggy landscape of St Abb’s Head on the Berwickshire coast is a National Nature Reserve famous for its clamouring seabirds, rugged coastline, rich grasslands and crystal-clear waters.
A veritable ‘seabird city’, St Abb’s Head is a year-round haven for birdwatchers, walkers and wildlife lovers.
The dramatic cliffs provide spectacular vantage points from which to watch thousands of nesting seabirds, including guillemots, kittiwakes and razorbills.

St Abbs rock fishing for tricksy fish.

Went on a trip to the East Coast for what was expected to be a long slow day but with the chance of some very good fish. Well I only got four encounters that day and they were all from decent fish...First fish cut my line on a snag, second fish got unhooked with the help of kelp (?).The only fish of the day landed, was a nice pollock that threw the hook whilst at my feet (I was precariously perched on a rock ledge!) and I then lost possibly the biggest fish of the day from a bad hook up (hook was slightly bent and blunt from a snag-up, with the fish taking soon after unsnagging the lure). Not exactly the most productive of days but I still felt it was worth the trip..
Interesting to note the lack of coalies and Im pretty certain that all the fish were pollock. I think we're gonna have an early season this year...

After an overnight stay in Aberdeen, your journey will take you inland, through the land of Speyside, one of Scotland’s whisky producing regions. Plan a stop at a distillery to take a tour and see how uisge beatha, ‘the water of life’, is made.
Driving through the majestic countryside of Royal Deeside and the east side of the Cairngorms National Park is bound to be a highlight of the journey.

Places to see in ( Coldingham - UK )

Places to see in ( Coldingham - UK )
Coldingham is a village and parish in Berwickshire, Scottish Borders, on Scotland's southeast coastline, north of Eyemouth. The parish lies in the east of the Lammermuir district and is the second largest civil parish by area in the county of Berwickshire, after Lauder. It is bounded on the north-west by the North Sea, on the east by the parish of Eyemouth, on the south-east by Ayton on the south by Chirnside and Bunkle, on the west by Abbey St Bathans and on the north by Cockburnspath. Besides the village of Coldingham, the parish contains the villages of:
St Abbs (formerly Coldingham Shore)
Reston
AuchencrowGrantshouse
The civil parish is divided between the Community Council areas of Coldingham, St Abbs, Reston and Auchencrow, and Grantshouse. It was included in the former Berwickshire District of Borders Region, by the Local Government (Scotland) Act1973, from 1975 to 1996.
Before the Reformation a vaguely defined jurisdiction known as Coldinghamshire was linked to Coldingham Priory and extended along the east coast of Berwickshire. By 15th century there is some indication that the civil administration was gradually attaining paramount sway with the consent of the Church itself. In 1406, the lordship of the Priory was held by Archibald, Earl of Douglas and in 1414, the Prior and Chapter of Durham (the ecclesiastical superiors of the priory) signed a deed constituting the Earl of Douglas "sovereign bailie" and governor of the house and barony of Coldingham. The barony of Coldingham, which included Eyemouth and other areas adjacent to the parish of Coldingham continued as a jurisdiction into the 17th and 18th centuries.
There was a monastery of high order on this site as early as AD 660, when it is recorded that Etheldreda, the queen of Egfrid, became a nun at the Monastery of Coldingham, then under the management of Æbbe the Elder, aunt of her husband. Bede describes it as "the Monastery of Virgins" and states that in 679 the monastery burnt down. It was rebuilt, but was again destroyed by fire at the hands of a raiding party of Danes in 870. This time the ruins were not rebuilt, it would appear, until 1098, when the Priory of Coldingham was founded by King Edgar in honour of St. Cuthbert of Lindisfarne. It became the caput for the Barony of Coldingham, with the prior as the feudal lord.
( Coldingham - UK ) is well know as a tourist destination because of the variety of places you can enjoy while you are visiting Coldingham . Through a series of videos we will try to show you recommended places to visit in Coldingham - UK

But actually there are half million visiting the Island every year so there is a lot to do. We have had two schools here, we have had two pilgrimage groups here today, we have had a group of prison officers here today. I mean it all happens here. It's a lovely place for people to come. It's got an inspiration about it, so I guess really we have just got a lot that is privileged to share with other people."

He cam from Scotland, he came from Iona (Island of Scotland). And Iona of course is an island, so it's very much a home here for him. And he established a monastery and a small school, and the evangelism of the north of England and right into the south of England as well all came from Holy Island."

We have a lot of visitors to Holy Island and the kind of visitors that come to Holy Island are the ones that care about the environment so maybe that contributes to our busyness.

Runde

www.visitalesund.com. Facing the ocean, north in Fjord Norway, lies the island of Runde. The small island has no more than 150 inhabitants, but from February to August every year the nesting season takes place and more than 500.000 birds gather on the island. It is the southernmost bird cliff in Norway. It is connected to the mainland with a bridge and is the home of some 500.000 to 700.000 seabirds. More than 220 species have been identified, but Runde is most famous for its puffins. Other species includes (bort) black-legged kittiwake, common guillemot, northern gannet, great skua and not least the white-tailed eagle. All in all it has more species represented than any other place in Scandinavia and ranges among the top bird watching spots in the world. The many shipwrecks in the ocean make Runde a feast for everyone interested in combining hiking with storytelling or diving. The hiking on the island is suitable for anyone. The easy walks and not least birdwatching will be a spectacular event for children and grown-ups alike. The paths across the top of the island are well marked, leading to the cliffs and the spectacular views of the birds and the ocean. Hiking and watching birds can be combined with a visit to the famous Runde lighthouse. There are several alternative routes, but expect the trip to last 2-3 hours from start to finish if you choose the shortest. The well marked paths leave no need for maps. Still, description of routes and birds are found in maps and books which can be bought in the accommodation facilities on the island, at the TouristInformation Office or by simply searching the web. Guides are available on request, and in summer season, boat trips are arranged frequently around the island to marvel at the cliffs, the birds and other marine life from the ocean.

Wild Camp Berwickshire 2015

This is my 2 night coastal wild camp in Berwickshire within the Scottish Borders with St Abbs and Coldingham being the closest access points. I part walk the Berwickshire Coastal trail which is part of a Long DistanceTrail associated with the NorthumberlandCoastal Trail. I enjoy a beautiful night round the camp fire but it interrupted by one of the worst lightning thunderstorms in UK history. My dilemma is explained! On reflection my decision was perhaps panic driven but the circumstances were extreme and as I comment I was actually BRICKING IT!

Dive St Abbs - West Hurker to Pinnacle

Better video (hopefully) of this sight as torch fully charged this time. More of the cave and a large lobster along with the rest (i won't spoil it for you). The octopus on the other video was on this dive also. Quite a large swell running but i would say more waves but not to bad as we were sheltered inact it was flat calm where we started as we were round the corner but where we surfaced at the Pinnacle it was choppy there.
